With a forgetful season in the Premier League, the Red Devils are trying to salvage something out of the Europa League at least. Domestically, they were knocked out of the EFL Cup FA Cup.<\/p><p>They fell at the hands of Spurs in the EFL Cup quarter-finals back in December last year. In what was a thrilling match, the Red Devils fought till the last minute but Spurs still won the match by a 4-3 margin. They managed to stay in the FA Cup until the fifth round where they faced Fulham.<\/p><p>In that match, after trailing early, they managed to equalize and hold on till the official minutes of the match. However, they failed in the penalties as Fulham progressed to the quarter-finals with a 3-4 margin win on penalties. However, they have managed to land themselves into a spot at the Europa League quarter-finals.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Up next: Old Trafford's penultimate Manchester derby of the season &#128064;&#9876;&#65039;<br> <br>&#129309; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ManUtdWomen?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@ManUtdWomen<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/MUFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#MUFC<\/a> || <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Betfred?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@Betfred<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Manchester United (@ManUtd) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ManUtd\/status\/1907832971400298959?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>April 3, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Ending the group stage at third place in the table, <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/manchester-united-loaned-out-stars-antony-marcus-rashford-return-possible-read-ruben-amorim-weighs-in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Man United<\/a> drew against Real Sociedad in the Round of 16.
